How long?

Hi all.  I have been thinking alot latley about my health.  I am a college student and the doctors on campus that I can see for free are idiots!!  When I first started having my migraines they refused to test me for diabetes, it was not till the summer when I saw my doctor back at my parents that they finally tested me and put me on meds to control it, since he said i was "Pre-diabetic."  I still think the diagnosis of "pre" is silly.  my sugar levels were horrible this summer.  But back to the point...  I have not been to my doc back home since August probably.  I had the docs here run a few lab tests to send to my doc back home back in november.  Since then, the docs on campus do not do much when I go in for  visits other than ask me how I am doing.  I may be moving again this summer and I do not know what to do.  Do I go see my doc back home again before I move so my new doc can have new information?  Should I have them test me again to see if i really need to still be taking this dose of meds or if they should change meds?  I'm confused, because my BS levels still flucuate quite a bit and give me horible migraines. 


Thanks.

Hi Tara,


Thank goodness for your calm question. I have been at work all day and didn't know about the crisis on the board until I got home.


See your doctor at home and get the
